Helping Women Over 40 End Binge Eating and Emotional Eating—and Create Lasting Peace
Around Food
Heal your relationship with food, release the beliefs that are keeping you stuck, and step into the
woman you were created to be.
If this sounds like you, you’re not alone.
You Turn To Food to Overcome Negative Emotions
You look for food to numb your feelings when you're tired, anxious, or overwhelmed.
You Start to Eat One Donut and You End Up Eating Ten
You can't just eat one cookie, one donut, or one small bag of chips. Once you start eating, it feels impossible to stop.
You Eat in Secret, Embarrassed by Your Habits
You eat in secret, hiding wrappers, sneaking food, or waiting to eat until everyone's asleep or no one's watching.
You're Tired of Breaking Promises to Yourself
You be at yourself up for overeating, feeling like you've failed again...and promising yourself to start over tomorrow.
You look successful on the outside, but on the inside, you're exhausted from the constant battle with food and your body.
You show up for everyone in your life with so much love and grace, but you're unable to offer the same love and grace to yourself.
You feel stuck in
the same patterns-
and no matter
how hard you try,
nothing seems to stick.
You want to feel
more confident.
and more at peace
around food, but something
keeps getting in the way.
The Key to Food Freedom Isn't Changing
What You Eat...
It's Changing What You Believe
For 40 years, I struggled with food.
I’d find myself halfway through a sleeve of cookies, feeling completely out of control and wondering why I couldn’t just stop.
If there was a bag of chips in the pantry, I’d obsess over it until I finally gave in and ate the whole thing.
Then came the guilt. The shame. Hiding the wrappers at the bottom of the trash so no one would find out.
Food became my escape whenever I felt stressed, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained. I used it to numb my feelings, quiet my mind, and get a few minutes of relief from everything going on inside my head.
I spent years skipping meals, saving calories, and trying to be “good” with food… only to feel completely out of control when I finally let myself eat.
It was exhausting
The restricting. The bingeing. The guilt. The promises to do better tomorrow.
In desperation to stay thin, I also got caught up in bulimia, and the bingeing and purging nearly cost me my life.
Then, one night changed everything.
I went to bed with a plate of cookies, planning to eat them all.
I took one bite of the first cookie and something shifted.
I looked at that cookie and thought,
"I can't keep living like this anymore."
I finally became willing to question everything I thought I knew about food, and what it actually meant to heal.
And that was the night that everything started to change. ❤️
For 40 years, I didn't realize that I was trying to change the wrong thing.
I was trying to change my behavior without changing the beliefs that were driving it.
Deep down, I believed things like:
"I have no self-control."
"I can't trust myself around food."
"I'll always struggle with this."
"There's something wrong with me."
And every time I repeated those thoughts, I reinforced the identity of a woman who believed she would always struggle.
That's what changed everything for me.
I stopped focusing only on what I needed to STOP doing and started asking myself a different question:
"Who is the woman I want to become, and what does she believe about herself?"
That shift changed everything
Once I began to see myself differently, my choices and behaviors began to change, too.
You can spend your entire life trying to change your behavior, but if you never address the beliefs beneath it, you'll keep finding yourself in the same patterns.
That's the deeper work I help women do.
You cannot create lasting change in your behavior while holding on to the same identity that created it.
That is exactly what
we do inside
Food Freedom
Identity Shift.
A 16 Week Program to become binge-free
and create lasting peace around food.
Here's what I know:
Whether you're dealing with disordered eating or struggling to accept yourself...
The root cause is the same.
It's the beliefs you've been carrying about your worth.
It's the identity you've built around being "not enough."
It's the nervous system patterns that keep you feeling unsafe in your own body.
And that's exactly what we heal together.
Not with willpower.
Not with restriction.
Not with shame.
With love, compassion, and deep identity transformation.
And when you shift your identity,
everything changes
You trust yourself around food
You stand confidently in your own skin
You love yourself exactly as you are
The 'Food Freedom Identity Shift Method' is built on
Three Transformational Pillars...
Believe, Become, and Transform
BELIEVE
You'll discover the negative beliefs you've been telling yourself for years.
And replace them with empowering truths.
You ARE worthy of freedom.
You ARE capable of change.
You ARE deserving of love -
exactly as you are.
This is where healing begins.
BECOME
Become the woman who is
already enough.
Worthy.
Capable.
Deserving of love exactly as she is.
She trusts herself.
She loves herself.
She nourishes herself.
She shows up for herself.
She knows she is exactly who she was created to be:
Extraordinary.
Empowered.
Free.
TRANSFORM
Discover what is possible in your life.
Not what others tell you is possible.
What YOU create - deliberately, intentionally, from the inside out.
The woman you were created to be is worth fighting for.
Worth healing for.
Worth believing in.
This is the most powerful thing you'll ever do.
And it starts here.
Right now.
But don't try to do
this alone...
Research shows: Success goes up 95% when you have an accountability partner who has been in your shoes...walked the path, and found their way out.
I have walked this path myself. spending years trapped in an eating disorder, doubting myself, questioning myself, and wondering if I would ever break free. .
I also know what it's like to look in the mirror and not love the reflection staring back at me.
Because I've been on this path of transformation myself, I know exactly how to guide you along the way.
Let me help you BREAK FREE!
